Abstract

Systems and methods for evaluating device quality are disclosed. Some implementations include receiving, operational parameters for a mobile device, where the operational parameters include data related to service disturbances in a plurality of areas of operational performance of the mobile device, computing, for each dimension of a plurality of dimensions, a curve indicative of a relationship between a device quality index (DQI) and operational parameters of the mobile device, where each dimension corresponds to a particular area of operational performance of the mobile device, identifying cliff points in each dimension of a multi-dimensional surface fitted to each computed curve, where each cliff point corresponds to a reduction in a user's quality of experience in a particular area of operational performance, and projecting the identified cliff points in each dimension of the multi-dimensional surface to determine a horizontal space in the multi-dimensional surface corresponding to a region of acceptable DQIs.
